with a breath of kindness, blow the rest away.

relax into being ourselves,
play with our inner child,

dig in the dirt,
grow something,
love somebody else,

hang "go away" on the door whenever we want,
clean and tidy often... or never,
launch from and return to,
are truly ourselves.

is a greater gift than a steak dinner served brusquely.

Release your regrets if you choose

Choose to love yourself.
Choose to love your life.
Choose to love all the friends, family, co-workers,
acquaintances, and others who share your life.
